As a child, growing up in Northern Michigan, we took a field trip to Dinosaur Gardens. A few weeks ago, visiting with my own child - a toddler, we swung through to see if "The DG" was as good as I remember. Now, the statues of dinosaurs aren't really historically accurate, but who cares? My husband and I had a nice time taking a stroll through the woods, and my son got to marvel at big, colorful giant dinosaurs. (A few of them appeared to be under renovations, but I've heard the place is under new ownership and they might be sprucing it up a bit.)

Also, there's putt-putt golf and fro-yo. All told, it's worth the price of admission.
Walking with a toddler, it took about an hour to get through all the statues.

Giant dinosaurs in the woods. We had two three year olds and they loved it. This place reminds me of many of the attractions that were around in the early 60's. Truly a step back in time. We didn't play mini golf but the course looked nice. Prices were reasonable even in the gift shop.

Unbelievable dinosaur gardens with real life looking replicas that will delight people of all ages. You can even get a nice game of putt-putt golf. The walk through the woods seeing all the sites is a delight for children and adults. Let your imagination soar when you visit this awesome place.

We visited Dinosaur gardens during our Michigan holiday. My 6 year son really likes dinosaurs. He loved seeing the life size replicas of all the dinosaurs and animals. My 3 year daughter also enjoyed it. She liked the frog and mushroom table / umbrella.

My wife and I enjoyed it. I was a nice walk through the woods and it was nice to see the kids excited.

The gift shop has all sorts of dinosaur souvenirs and refreshments.

We spent an hour or so there. Admission for 2 adults and 3 kids ( 6yrs, 3yrs and 9 mos ) was $27. It would have been nice if kids under 1-2 years were free.

Overall, it was a neat place to check out and we enjoyed it.
